Translation to appear in the main window

Postby DOCENKO Dmitrijo » Thu Sep 29, 2011 4:14 am

Now, if I press the assigned keyboard shortcut, small (I would say primitive) window of GoldenDict opens.
I would prefer the main window of GoldenDict covering the whole screen to open.
Now I solve this issue by turning off translation by keyboard shortcut and assigning the keyboard shortcut to open the main window. So, I select a word, press the keyboard shortcut, the main window opens, then I click Ctrl+V to insert the copied word into entry bar and press Enter. But it's too long.
I would prefer to select a word, press the keyboard shortcut and see translation in the main window opened (as in ABBYY Lingvo).

Yes, this has been requested a couple of times before, and I personally would like to see this behavior as well.

It's just the matter of resources and free time though.

FWIW, you can Ctrl-V directly into the main window with the definition.

I also want to see implemented an option to choose between open scan popup or main window.

When finding some word I don't know I usually just want a quick translation and keep focusing on the text at hand, so the small window fits my tastes. In fact I rarely open the main window.

But as long as it's an option, no problem.

FYI, this option is now implemented in the early builds of GoldenDict. You can download them here: https://github.com/goldendict/goldendic ... or-Windows

You can see a couple of screenshots of the new option in this post: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1451

Thanks,
Chulai
